I absolutely loved the last portion of this conversation when you were discussing the transformative processes involved with reading and writing with the emphasis on being rather than on the end product.

As you know, I built a house, and it changed me - not as much to live there as the creative process of imaging, choosing every detail, learning new skills & fumbling through using them, failing etc. One becomes very clear about one’s values in these processes.

gotta be one of the greatest examples of it. Can't wait to do something like that for myself one day

The astronomers didn't DEMOTE Pluto, but rather defined a class of gravity well AFTER him. The motivation comes from a lofty, Star Trekian place, in which we'll need a wide range of definitions as we explore other star systems.

what do you mean? They even came up with the word "plutoed" for the demotion of a planet to another status. I believe that would qualify for that phrasing, no?

I mean that Pluto became representative of a NEW - not LESSER - class of gravity well

Love, love Mark's work on EA and the planetary nodes (which is the paradigm I apply in my readings). Thanks for this. It is through his work that I first landed on your podcast some years back. 🔥

The Chiron section was intriguing - I would look for what you wrote about it. I might have missed it, having gone through the return and 10 years after. I have to add that it takes at least 1/4 of Saturn's time to digest and integrate these latent potentials. I am from the school that can certify with my own experience that both the first Saturn return and Uranus opposition are keys to how that Chiron return will unfold. By the second Saturn return, its goodies can serve as an abundant basket of treasures.

By the way, I have been invited to speak at the Adopting Bitcoin Conference in El Salvador next November, and the theme is “Bitcoin as the Promethean quest for individuation (and liberation)”. I have to thank Mark Jones for leading me to you via Google search and then signing up for your Patreon because of your knowledge of Bitcoin, which then led to my course with Tansy. Fast forward >>> I have finished my 1-year seminar with Saifedean on Austrian economics and found a way to serve the community by speaking about my passion with evolutionary astrology, human design, and myth.

There is a bit of you in all of this. So, I appreciate you, Adam
